Tester, Rosendale Neck and Neck in Latest Montana Poll
Just two weeks before the midterm elections on Nov. 6, Montana Democratic Sen. Jon Tester held a 3-point advantage over his Republican challenger in a new poll released by the Montana Television Network and Montana State University.
Tester, seeking a third term, led state auditor Matt Rosendale, 46 percent to 43 percent in the survey of registered voters. That’s within the margin of error of plus or minus 2 percentage points for the poll conducted by mail of more than 2,000 registered voters from late September through early October.
Republicans have gone hard this cycle at Tester, a Democrat in a state GOP President Donald Trump carried by 20 points in 2016. He’s one of 10 such Democrats in Trump states up for re-election this cycle.
